Spoon - Ghost Of You Lingers, The lyrics

If you were here Would you calm me down or settle the score? The feelings I fight (All the stranger in town) Burn so bright (Would know if you were here) The feelings I fight, yeah (Would you ease my mind? Come on) The sleep fled from my eyes And I, I know that I need some Give a thought to the one that you know Oh, would you calm me down When the breath gets shallow and fast? We put on the clinic, it felt good to me (If you were here would you calm me down?) Can't see I'm losing it, must I set up the scene (We settled the score) (The man asleep in my car, I see it) Put on a clinic but now I need you, right (They're all alive) Oh, would you ease my mind? Yeah (The ghost of you lingers) Put on a clinic till we hit the wall Just like a sailor with his wounds being salted, come on (And lingers) I had a nightmare nothing could be put back together Would you settle the score? If you were here would you calm me down? The ghost of you lingers and lingers and I sleep a bit Oh, would you calm me down?
